Koocanusa Bridge


Back to Project Showcase
 

  Project type: Bridge Painting - Lead Abatement
Owner: United States Forest Service
Location: Lake Koocanusa, Montana
Project value: $2,200,000

Several conditions made this a particularly challenging project:

  • The site is very remote, several hundred miles from the nearest large city (Missoula)
  • Lake levels vary widely over the year, up to 100' elevation change.
  • Painting season is short with severe winters. High winds always possible.
  • Truss cross section varies and is up to 65' high at the piers
  • Rigid environmental regulation, project administered by Forest Service.

Certified met the challenge, completing the project on-time, within budget and without any discharges or violations at the drinking water reservoir.
